Undiscussed move (2014)
I have reverted the undiscussed move of this page to its previous, stable location because I do not agree with the move or the rationale given for it. The proper names and titles of members of the Bagrationi dynasty are controversial, and should not be moved without prior consensus, in the absence of which please initiate a move request on the relevant article talk page. FactStraight (talk) 07:10, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Would you stop your behavior? Her father, grandfather, brother articles none of them have "Prince" in the title of the article and nor should she have any. And there is nothing controversial about it as we agreed they were tavadi. Jaqeli (talk) 11:40, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Either way such moves need to be discussed, which is what the problem here is since you've been known to edit controversially. I support the current title but not for the same reason. I support it for its consistency since the absense of the Prince/Princess in the article's title seems to fall in line with all Geogrian dynasts of the House of Bagrationi including the Bagration-Gruzinsky branch born after Russian annexation, which seems appropriate since the Georgian nobility was absorbed into the Russian nobility afterward and like the Rurikid princes should just show their names.--The Emperor&#39;s New Spy (talk) 22:24, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
 * The fact that these edits and moves consistently distort English Wikipedia to reflect a partisan POV demoting the status of the Mukhranis should be addressed, but the only matter relevant in this thread is that a unilateral move was reverted with notification that a move request would be necessary because the move is disputed. Instead, a unilateral move was again initiated, which is disruptive editing. Undoing and preventing that disruption is what's called for here. FactStraight (talk) 03:35, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Stop your blatant WP:Advocacy. Do you even follow your statements? You've agreed that Mukhranians are Tavadi and you still continue to edit war and try to make a nobility into a royalty. No one is "demoting the status of the Mukhranis" as they are a nobility and not a royalty line. You misunderstand the word "Prince" methinks. I'll explain you one more time.
 * If a person is a tavadi that means he is a nobility prince.
 * If a person is a nobility prince that means he cannot be a royalty prince thus cannot be a member of the Bagrationi dynasty.
 * Tavadi by all definition cannot be a royalty and it is an established fact in Georgia and cannot be disputed. One cannot be a nobility and royalty at the same time. Kutsna Amirejibi, Garsevan Chavchavadze, Givi Amilakhvari, David Guramishvili etc. they also were "Princes" but none of them were claiming they were royalty. Stop manipulating the word "Prince" and "Princess" and stop forging the Georgian history. It is an established fact that the Mukhranians were a nobility and you've been told about it already. They were princes like those Georgians above listed and all of them had the title tavadi which is a title of a nobility princes not of the royal princes. Jaqeli (talk) 10:21, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

The argument is about policy right now and User:FactStraight makes an important point that you must make a move request because your change is being disputed. To quote User:FactStraight, "the only matter relevant in this thread is that a unilateral move was reverted with notification that a move request would be necessary because the move is disputed. Instead, a unilateral move was again initiated, which is disruptive editing. Undoing and preventing that disruption is what's called for here."--The Emperor&#39;s New Spy (talk) 07:31, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
 * I repeat. There is nothing controversial and disputed about this lady. His father, grandfather or brother none of them have word "Prince" in the title of the article and nor should she have any. Her status as a tavadi is an established fact and all articles should be in harmony with each other. Her status was no different from his brother or father and Wikipedia cannot advocate for titles they wanted for themselves to be known for. So please stop beating the air.

Princess Leonida Bagration of Mukhrani → Leonida Bagration of Mukhrani – An editor has proposed that this page be moved in accordance with this request in the above discussion, primarily on the basis that other members of the subject's family have articles that do not include royal titles. I am neutral on the matter. bd2412 T 03:07, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose. She is primarily known as the consort of Grand Duke Vladimir of Russia, and only secondarily as a member of the Bagration dynasty. Still, no one disputes that her family historically held the princely prefix in monarchical Georgia and Imperial Russia, and that it is commonly used not only for her, but for her father and brother -- whatever Wikipedia calls them. If she is denied that prefix, she will be the only woman born into an historically titled family who married a Romanov that is denied that title on Wikipedia, which would thereby make her unique in a way that looks inexplicably punitive or minimising. I have seen no source in English which withholds from her either her spouse's grandducal title (which English Wikipedia does not accord to any consorts of Romanov pretenders, i.e., Princess Victoria Melita of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, Princess Marie of Saxe-Weimar or Prince Franz Wilhelm of Prussia) although both who have died did so after Russia abolished its monarchy): Leonida is given the prefix "Princess" prior to her marriage to Vladimir Romanov in, among other highly reputable sources, Burke’s Royal Families of the World, volume 2 on page 297; in Queen Victoria's Descendants on pages 82, 89, 152; in The Descendants of King George I of Great Britain on page 575, and in every obit in English I've seen on the woman. In fact, in what English source is she ever referred to using neither "Grand Duchess" or "Princess"? Consistency with the titling of members of her birth family rather than with those of her marital family has never been of primary importance in naming articles, and here it would constitute undue emphasis while creating inconsistency with our many other articles on the wives of Romanovs -- with whom she is most closely identified and affiliation with whom is what makes her notable. FactStraight (talk) 04:39, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose I have always seen members of this family given a princely title in sources, eg the husband and children of Princess Tatiana Constantinovna of Russia. - dwc lr (talk) 12:39, 15 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose As it is the title she was born with, be it noble or royal is another discussion that can be included in the article if need be.68.109.175.166 (talk) 02:42, 22 June 2014 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: moved per consistency with other royalty — kwami (talk) 17:03, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

Princess Leonida Bagration of Mukhrani → Leonida Bagration of Mukhrani – The word "Princess" to this person is redundant as she does not hold a royal status. Neither her father, George Bagration of Mukhrani, nor her brother, Irakli Bagration of Mukhrani have word "Prince" in the name of an article so she must follow them as well. Mukhranian Bagrations manipulate the word "Prince" and "Princess" as if they were a royalty which they are not. Other historical figures like Kutsna Amirejibi, Garsevan Chavchavadze, Givi Amilakhvari, Davit Guramishvili, Alexander Chavchavadze etc. were also "Princes" and their status was equal that to of the Mukhranian Bagrations as they both were Tavadi princes but none of them have "Prince" in the name of the article. So I suggest we correct this mistake and move it to its original form without "Princess" as it is used only for the royalty not nobility. Jaqeli 12:10, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Princess Leonida was primarily known as the consort of Grand Duke Vladimir of Russia, and only secondarily as a member of the Bagration dynasty. Still, no one disputes that her family historically held the princely prefix in both monarchical Georgia and Imperial Russia, and that it is commonly used not only for her, but for her father and brother -- whatever Wikipedia calls them. Nothing has changed since Jaqeli's unilateral removal of "Princess" from her bio's name a year ago was reverted and his subsequent move request was rejected here, and failure to get an admin to help diminish her family's stature elsewhere doesn't justify renewing this dispute for a third time. If Leonida is denied that prefix, she will be the only woman born into an historically titled family who married a Romanov that is denied that title on Wikipedia, which would thereby make her unique in a way that looks inexplicably punitive or minimising. Leonida is given the prefix "Princess" prior to her marriage to Vladimir Romanov in, among other highly reputable sources, Burke’s Royal Families of the World, volume 2 on page 297; in Queen Victoria's Descendants on pages 82, 89, 152; in The Descendants of King George I of Great Britain on page 575, and in every obit in English I've seen on the woman. In fact, in what English source is she ever referred to using neither "Grand Duchess" or "Princess"? Consistency with the titling of members of her birth family rather than with those of her marital family has never been of primary importance in naming articles, and here it would constitute undue emphasis while creating inconsistency with our many other articles on the wives of Romanovs -- with whom she is most closely identified and affiliation with whom is what makes her notable. FactStraight (talk) 15:16, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Support per nom, if she is primarily known as the consort, she should not have the title attached, since it isn't her title, it's her husband's -- 67.70.32.190 (talk) 05:44, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose . "Leonida Bagration of Mukhrani" is not used in sources as per Gbook hits. Move to "Leonida Bagration-Mukhransky" (10) or "Leonida Bagration-Moukhransky" (9).--Z oupan 15:25, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
 * "Bagration-Mukhransky" or "Bagration-Moukhransky" literally means "Bagration of Mukhrani". Your suggested names are the Russified versions of her original surname. Jaqeli 16:15, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
 * But still used in sources. Having lived in Russia for most of her life, I see no problem in using her actual ("Russified") surname.--Z oupan 16:28, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
 * "Bagration of Mukhrani" is a standard form in scholarship. Some lived in Russia, some in Spain, some in France but all of them are named "Bagration of Mukhrani" here in EnWiki. See David Bagration of Mukhrani, Alexander Bagration of Mukhrani, Ivane Bagration of Mukhrani etc. Jaqeli 16:34, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

I doubt "Bagration of Mukhrani" is a standard form in scholarship. A quick look at Gbooks shows that that isn't the case. Bagration-Moukhransky is far more used. However, if there is a concensus that "Bagration of Mukhrani" should be used, I revoke my move proposal.--Z oupan 16:54, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, there is a consensus on "Bagration of Mukhrani" title in English wiki. Would you support the move or you'd stay neutral? Jaqeli 16:59, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I support omitting "Princess".--Z oupan 17:00, 30 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Support omission of Princess in the title to simplify the title in line with other Georgian royals (Mukhrani and Gruzinsky alike) but Oppose removal of the term "Princess" in the body of the article or any of Jaqeli's POV comments/rationale and his previous edits which have tried to denigrated the Mukhrani family in favor of the Gruzinsky family of the Bagration dynasty.--The Emperor&#39;s New Spy (talk) 09:19, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
